"Nice to see you here." Chen Fan cracked a smile.

This was the second time he had met one of his classmates at the bar. Since the bar was very close to high school, Chen Fan expected to see his schoolmates from time to time.

"Yeah." Jiang Tanqiu said as his eyes flickered up.

He was unaware of what had happened at the auction, and neither had he gotten the memo on Chen Fan's job at the bar.

Therefore, when he found out that his desk mate was working at the bar, he was quite shocked. He had always known Chen Fan as a proud although reserved popular kid and never had he thought that Chen Fan worked at a bar.

"Xiao Qiu, is this your friend?" A girl stood up from her chair and asked.

"Yes, Sister Qian-Qian. he is my deskmate, and his name is Chen Fan." Jiang Tanqiu spoke under his breath; clearly, he was embarrassed by Chen Fan's low wage job.

It wasn't until then that Chen Fan realized that there was a boy and a girl sitting right next to Jiang Taniu. They both looked to be in their twenties. The male was tall and handsome while the girl was of above average looks.

Chen Fan's eyes glinted surreptitiously the moment he saw the girl.

"Hi, I am Xiao Qiu's neighbor; my name is Xiao Qian." The girl reached a hand out to Chan Fan as she spoke.

Chen Fan ignored her and turned around to Jiang Taniu and said: "You guys have fun, I need to work."

After he said that, he turned on his heels and started back without even glancing at Xiao Qian.

Xiao Qian pulled a taut face as displeasure surfaced on her face.

Jiang Tanqiu felt even more embarrassed, and he stammered, "Sister Qian-Qian, don't mind him. He is always like that."

"Just forget about him, Qian-Qian. Come sit right here," the man said with a warm smile.

Hearing the other man's words, Xiao Qian finally gathered herself and sat down reluctantly.

The man then gave Jiang Taniu a look and then spoke in a patient voice, "Xiao Qiu, I know this is our first time meeting each other, and I really shouldn't poke my nose into your business.

"However, as your senior, I felt the need to remind you of what makes a good friend. Your friend, for example, his job aside—after all, being independent is a good thing— his action was extremely rude and inappropriate. Have you asked yourself if such a person could be trusted as your friend?" Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

"Touche! Xiao Qi, you need to heed the words of your senior!" Xiao Qian chimed in.

Jiang Tanqiu felt indignant; however, he lacked the words to protest for himself, so he could only smile and nod his head.

Deep down, he blamed Chen Fan for this unpleasant experience. He had always treated Chen Fan like one of his best friends, but Chen Fan didn't seem to appreciate his good gesture. Otherwise, he wouldn't embarrass him in front of the girl he liked and his rival in love. The least a friend could do was to help each other, but Chen Fan had been a hindrance rather than a help so far.

Unbeknownst to Jiang Taniu, Chen Fan had recognized the girl at first sight.

She was Xiao Qian, the daughter of Jiang Tanqiu's neighbor. She was one year older than Jiang Taniu and studied at the Chu Zhou University. Jiang Taniu had been her secret admirer ever since Jiang Taniu was a boy.

In Chen Fan's past life, Jiang Tanqiu had got himself into trouble because of her. In the end, Jiang Taniu was thrown behind the bar for seven years and therefore ruined his otherwise promising life. Xiao Qian, on the other hand, had a new boyfriend as soon as Jiang Tanqiu went to jail. She didn't visit Jiang Tanqiu even once during the seven years of incarceration.
